Life without instantaneous internet availability at the house is proving to be a trying experience. Missives need to be sent, movies to be watched, and talks to be had with you lovely readers, but I am restricted to public wifi. The difficulty is I am not fond of the “public.” I fear the nefarious hacker who could be present and up to no good. Kind of like the NSA hacking SSL info. No one needs to know that much. It’s a bit beyond Big Brother.

The real problem is the internet and cable companies obviously do not employee enough people to accommodate the demand for their services. I have a two-hour window in the middle of my workday about a month from my move-in date. For a Saturday appointment, it was a six-week wait. Does that make sense? Not to me. Hire a few more technicians. Look at me creating jobs. I would also like more evening and weekend appointments. Why are we trying to fit everything into a nine-to-five window? There must be qualified technicians who don’t want to work mornings. My office can’t be the only place with people wandering in as close to ten as they can push it. Someone else has to be a night owl willing to work until seven or eight in the evening if they can get an extra hour of sleep in the morning. It’s called work shifts, people.

In order to build wealth, one needs to work, and I can’t very well achieve much at work while I sit around waiting for people at home. Some of us don’t have minions willing to do our bidding and haven’t cloned ourselves yet. There’s not a spare me to sit around waiting during my “appointment window” while me me goes to meetings. Yet there is so much waiting to be done.
